And So It Begins.
No zombie links today; no offsite links at all, actually. Just me.

Tomorrow, it's back from an extended time away from the office. We give everyone off between Christmas and New Year's - nothing ever gets done that week, anyway, and it's an extra few days' vacation, effectively. Of course, this means that, starting tomorrow, we'll be working our asses off trying to make up for the revenue loss.

Whatever; it's worth it. I needed the break, especially since my back hurts like a sonofabitch.

I'm not making resolutions, but goddammit, this year, my back WILL get better. I'm tired of this shit. I'm starting by going to the doctor tomorrow morning - thus taking even more time off work, but my partner will just have to deal with that.

On past New Year's Days, I've pasted my fortune cookie from the night before - we always go to this Japanese place, but they still serve fortune cookies. I don't know what's up with fortune cookies these days, anyway; some of the ones we've gotten lately have been just plain weird, as if they've been getting inspiration from "Misfortune CookiesOpen in new Window..

So I suppose I'll continue the tradition of posting it here, but I'm telling you, this one is lamer than a two-legged dog:

Only you can decide what is important to you.

Well, duh. Whatever, as the kids say.

Anyway, I did want to thank y'all for reading and commenting, or just reading if you don't comment. This journal already has nearly as many views as my previous one did, and it's only been open a year. So: thanks! I'll try to keep things at least as interesting in 2008.

There we go: a resolution, of sorts.

Have a great year!
